Yankees at Orioles picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 6, Yankees 4

Moneyline

PASS.

This is a tough bet to make, as both teams have been so good recently. I lean toward picking the Orioles (+100), but their odds here are safer on the run line, as picking them to win 3 straight vs. the Yankees is always risky. Bet on the RL and/or total.

Run line/Against the spread

BET ORIOLES +1.5 (-160).

The Orioles have covered the run line in 2 of their last 3 games and are 16-12 on the RL this season, while the Yankees are only 14-16. Baltimore is also 7-3 in its last 10 matchups vs. New York, covering the RL in 4 of the last 4 meetings.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 9.5 (+100).

The Over has hit in 3 of New York’s last 4 road games and is 4-2 in its last 6 overall. For Baltimore, the Over is 16-10-2 on the season.

The Over has also hit in 2 of the last 3 New York-Baltimore matchups and is 6-3-1 in the last 10 meetings.

This is only a lean because the Under has hit in 2 of Baltimore’s last 3 games and is 17-12-1 for the Yankees this year.
